I am wondering if anyone can recommend a nice B&B near Bunratty/Durty Nellys. I've looked on line and have one or two in mind, but a recommendation is so much better.

Thanks.

i would recommend the fitzpatrik hotel its /14 mile from the castle and durty nellys

One of the closest is the Park House which I stayed at last November. They can be found on the town and country site http://www.townandcountry.ie/

It was a nice place to stay and the owner was quite nice. The rooms are very comfortable. A bit further away is the Bunratty Lodge at the end of the "Low Road". It's very nice but not within walking distance.

Mrs. Molly,
I don't know if you'd be interested in a hotel, but the Bunratty Castle Hotel is RIGHT NEXT TO Bunratty Castle and Dirty Nelly's. You can go out, have a few pints and walk back to your room. It was also one of the few places we stayed in Ireland that had air conditioning. The staff is really friendly. The restaurant/pub had okay food and a nice atmosphere. There is also a Blarney woolen mills right next door if you are interested in the shopping thing. I can't remember how much the hotel, but it is reasonable. Nice, HUGE bathroom.
Have a great trip. I absolutely fell in love with Ireland.

I highly recommend Dunaree B&B. It's on the Low Road, walking distance to Durty Nellie's and the castle. I think it was 64 euro for two people ensuite with a great breakfast.

Hi...just saw this and can recommend Ashgrove House...it's a B&B...
